It serves the portion of Inverness east of the River Ness along with rural areas to the south of the city's reach, with a catchment area that includes the primary schools of Crown, Daviot, Drakies, Inshes, Raigmore and Strathdearn. The school runs parallel to the 'Mill Burn' which was originally used for a Whisky distillery. The distillery is now gone and has been replaced by a chain hotel. Millburn Academy opened for pupils in August 1961, although at that time it was known as Millburn JuniorSecondary School.In its early years Millburn Junior Secondary School catered for pupils in the first three, and later four, years ofsecondary, but in 1967 the school name was changed to Millburn Secondary School, showing the direction in whichthe school was developing.For a period after 1967, the introduction of comprehensive education meant that Millburn Academy accommodatedall pupils on the east side of Inverness for the first 2 years of their secondary education, after which the more abletransferred to Inverness Royal Academy to continue their education while the others remained at MillburnSecondary School.In 1967 the school was renamed as Millburn High School for a short time, but after pressure from parents it wasre-designated as Millburn Academy.The arrangement with Inverness Royal Academy ended in 1977 and from 1979 Millburn Academy couldconcentrate on being the sixth year secondary school for the catchment area - Crown, Drakies, Milton Of Leys, Raigmore, Moy,Daviot and Raigbeg Primary Schools, including pupils living in the area who attended Bishop Eden Primary Schooland St. Josephs R.C.
